ally LIGHT:
As the LIGHT has always been ''only
too pleased, you know" to grant the la
dies OF San Antonio an opportunity OF
speaking through its columns, | do want
awfully to say a word about that EX-
press statement that at was a quiet
Sunday, but not much quieter than all
San Antonio Sundays" Well, | sh nuld
remark! The reporter who made that
observation must have gone it blind, as
the boys say, or else my optics are not
mates.
Why, IN all my born days, and have
spent right smart lot OF them In San
Antonio, too, i never saw SO much con-
fusion, loud talking and fuss on the
streets. live not far from Commerce
and Alamo streets and it was as bad as
circus day around the corner, and
on Alamo street as far up as the plaza.
The streets and walks were Obstructed,
the conversation was much of it
prOfane, and | just tell you If it was a
quiet Sunday | didu't think so.
| heard score OF ladies say that day,
that there had been no Sunday in which
it was so unpleasant for them to be on
the streets on account of the CROWDS,
and for their part they would much
rather the beer halls and gardens were
opened than closed If that was to be the
case every Sunday. If quiet Sundays
are what the people want, for goodness
sake don't shut up the gardens and
turn the crowds on the streets.
My husband said when he returned
home that he had seen more drunken
people In San Antonio than he had seen
on any Sunday since he could remem-

Continuing to Large Busln ess.
From the Galveston News, Nov. 10.

Prof. Bristols troupe of trained horses is
still drawing big audiences at the fremont,
with each audience exceeding the other in
numbers, and while many questioned the ad-
Visibility of running this show for an entire
week without change of programme, II APP
pears that the very extraordinary attraction
playing to crowded houses the entire
week. This show, as before stated, is the
most remarkable that has ever appeared
in Galveston, and is deserving of patronage.
The matinee yesterday was crowded, with
SEQ people down stairs, and the reception after
the matinee, when ladies and children were
invited upon the stage, was very generally
taken advantage OF, and the children were
afforded much delight in being permitted to
ride the beautiful animals around the stage.
The audience last night was the largest even
ing audience since the opening. Another
matinee will be given on Friday afternoon and
again on Saturday.

Was Ever America Discovered +?

At the time when Columbus started in search
of the New World, nearly every man, woman
and child in Europe insisted that there was no
New World to discover. When he came back,
crowned with success, a large proportion of
these good people adhered to their theory
and If they were alive today many of them
would doubtless insist that America had never
been discovered at all. A man will give up
anything in the world more readily than a pet
theory. For example, look at the individuals
who still maintain that consumption is incur

has cured thousands upon thousands of cases,
and will cure thousands more, but thes these
people cant give up their point. Neverthe-
less the Discovery will cure any case of
consumption If taken in time.

There ale several species of fish which
are much more at home out of their
natural element than any species of the
human race are in water. The climb
ing perch (Anabas scandens) is re-
markable example found in Asia This
singular creature appears much like
other perch. but is endowed with an
extraordinary power of leaving failing
streams, climbing the banks, and pro-
ceeding over dry land in quest of better
filed water-courses. Hundreds ofthem
have been seen at distance of fifty or
sixty yards from pool just abandoned,
and travelling, though the ground was
so rough that this distance must have
required Sufficient m secular exertion to
take them half M. e over level ground.
Some writer's even a ;sert that this fish
capable OF climbing the rough stems Of
palm-trees. The fishermen of the
Gauges, who subsist largely on climb
ing perch, are accustomed to keep them
in dry earthern pans for five or six days
after catching. and they live this strange
life without discomfort Science.

grow more vigorously and ripen several
days earlier than from seed not so

Few cooks broii well, and yet it is
themostheat and acceptable method
of cooking meats. A clear fire, made
of cinders or coke,.is best for cooking
with gridiron, the bars of which
should be kept clean and smooth. There
should be space of four or five inches
between the top of the fire and the
bottom of the gridiron; the latter should
be well creased. Good cooks never salt
or pepper meats before broiling, as to
do so renders it hard and tasteless.
Broiling the steak, ham, chops or
chicken for meal should be the last
thing done, so it may have the cooks
undivided attention. A steel gridiron,
with fat, slender bars is best and most
convenient for broiling. The Caterer.

FACTS ABOUT FOWLS.
How the Poultry Yard Can BE Made Z
Profitable Adjunct to the Farm.


Profitable Adjunct to the Farm.
Iwish to call attention to the value
of milIx--sweet, sour, thick or thin-for
poultry. Egg production l think is
decidedly the most paying result to be
obtained from hens, though many birds
will need to be raised to sell to replen-
ish layers too old to keep. In January,
'S5, my fowls had only BALI enough
milk, and sold from them about forty
five dozen eggs. In January, 'S6, we
sold almost none; and in the middle of
February they were far below their ac-
customed work. 1 can attribute this
difference to nothing else but lack of
milk. The loss. at the time when eggs
are at the highest price, is considerable,
and do not intend that my fowls shall
ever again be without plenty of milk.
Now and then fowlwill die. 1t may
be disease or hurt from some animal.
heard people say that the sharp par
ticles of bones killed them, and as this
looked reasonable / stopped feeding
bones. But the number of eggs lessened,
and I recommended the bone-feeding,
with evident improvement. Possibly
sharp piece Of bone may occasionally
kill fowl. but so it sometimes does a
man. Shall we therefore stop eating
meat or fish, A mill is advertised for
grinding bones for fowls but l do not
know about it. l am well satisfied to
pound them with the head of light

lose fowl now and then, and do not
see how it can be avoided altogether,
but the best care will bring the losses
down to minimum. and without this
there can not be much profit anywhere
it is the little. apparently unimportant,
every day neglect that eventually eats
into the farmers purse. A fowls giz-
zard must be one of the most marvellous
structures, for what do they not put
therein. Do not put bones in the fire,
for this destroys the best part-grease,
